Is Westbrook better than Curry?

Westbrook gets a ring no he's not on Lebron's level.

l7ustin · 05-25-16, 01:15 AM

I think you need to keep in mind, I don't mean Lebron's prime vs what is peaking into Westbrooks.

I mean this Westbrook vs the aging Lebron.

Let's not get carried away.

If Westbrook didn't go fartbrain half a dozen times a game, then maybe.

Last season maybe. I think curry is better this season

Sure good curry might be hurt

tony_come · 05-25-16, 03:51 AM

Curry is better

Okc is better this year than the GS

The Kraken · 05-25-16, 05:15 AM

Curry ain't hurt

Currys problem is the OKC defense

vs
6 for 20

No contest Russell Westbrook is unguardable and can get anything he wants on the court while guarding Steph at the same time. Steph can't guard opposing PG's ithout getting destroyed and having to be hidden on defense and let's not even mention how many illegal moving screens he needs to get jumpers.

I mean I give the guy credit for one thing he's made careers for Draymond Green and Andrew Bogut who's whole purpose is setting moving screens and holding players while the NBA looks the other way. Take these bums away from Golden State and they wouldn't even cut it in Orlando they're bums

Yeah Westbrook seems like he can do so many more things.

If you switched them I think the Warriors would be better and the Thunder would be worse

l7ustin · 05-25-16, 07:04 AM

Curry has looked bad, and you're assuming he is hurt, but shouldn't Westbrook get credit for his defense? And he is not being shut down on the other end. Westbrook is more of a complete player.

i was never a fan of curry...he is using cheat codes out there lol

The Kraken · 05-25-16, 08:13 AM

They're blanketing him on every play and the thing about OKC that makes them different from say Portland, is that OKC can switch on the picks and be just fine, Roberson/KD/Russ/Foye/Waiters/Ibaka, they can all guard him decently. Plus they're doing a great job of running Curry and Thompson off the line, forcing them to drive and they're rwcking up blocked shots this series

Pretty much anyone on the floor for OKC can guard Curry effectively

I think a good prop bet for game 5 will be the over on all 3pt totals for Curry/Thompson and totals. They're gonna be letting them fly

Robertson underrated

WHo is this guy?

DOM-Ganador · 05-25-16, 09:22 AM

Lets not forget the numerous times over his career Westbrook absolutely spazzed out.
No question he is an awesome athlete and fierce competitor.

No question he is a terrific frontrunner.

Big question is can he actually take his team to a title through adversity?
I will be rooting for him.

jjgold · 05-25-16, 09:24 AM

Big difference is Westbrook more of fierce competitor than Curry

pinchegringo · 05-25-16, 09:51 AM

Between Curry and Westbrook I take westbrook but they both have holes.

Curry thinks he can take 30 foot jumpers willy nilly; is not a great athlete and not a great defender.

Westbrook looks like Harden sometimes (bonehead) but it is forgivable because it is with passion and effort, not like Harden where he is just trying to remember where he left his bong.

For the next year I still take LBJ over Westbrook. Westbrook better athlete right now (prbly has been for some time) but LBJ is still the best glue guy in the league and that is pretty important in a team game.

Kerr cant make adjustments for a better team, I mean you can but it usually comes down to the players. They had a great run with a TON OF LUCK. From team injuries to opposing teams injuries to a whole team shooting far above expectation. But as Kerr said something to the effect they have/are great players that is impossible to adjust for.

GSW arent helping themselves with that bitch Green flopping and kicking everybody. He didnt get suspended but he isnt getting calls now either, and calls were a big part of what GSW benefited from.

Curry is a better shooter but Westbrrok is probably the best athlete in the NBA, he would probably be an all pro db in the NFL if he wanted to.

l7ustin · 05-25-16, 10:37 AM

i see most teams make adjustments, i see the warriors just keep rolling the same shit strategy out there and hoping for a better result.

l7ustin · 05-25-16, 10:43 AM

The thunder remind me a lot of the 2011 mavs run
